• About

    This e-learning platform is a joint effort led by InfoNTD and ILEP’s Lift Leprosy Learning project. Our focus is on providing blended learning courses dedicated to Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs), aiming to enhance the skills of healthcare professionals and individuals with direct experience of NTDs.

    We take pride in offering high-quality, interactive courses developed in collaboration with NTD experts, Ministries of Health (MoH), and Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs). Our courses are tailored to address specific learning needs, ensuring a comprehensive educational experience.

    We invite you to explore the first module on 'Stigma & Mental Wellbeing,' accessible to all as a preview of the materials we'll be offering. As we grow, we'll expand our course offerings to cover a broader range of topics.

    E-learning.InfoNTD.org is an easily accessible online learning platform, compatible with desktop and mobile devices, both online and offline. We welcome collaboration with MoH, NGOs, and other organizations interested in sharing or developing e-learning modules. Feel free to reach out to us for potential partnerships via info@infontd.org.

    Thank you for considering our e-learning platform.
